I am, sorry I actually didn’t see you snagged it before I posted. I was just annoyed I didn’t get to vote. It is probably more fitting that it goes to a looney so it’s all for the best.

Heh, if you had left it open a bit longer, I would have Voted for Chicken of Bristol, and it wouldn’t have been tied. 😃

Your username is cool enough that it doesn’t need a title above it. They are stupid. Really. Do you really want something like “Kneel before Moderator?”

Fucking lame. Just close the thread and be content that you had one moment of greatness when you chose your username.
